Have you ever noticed ice or frost on your propane tank? Propane boils at -40°F. That is why it is kept under pressure (100 to 200 psi) at ambient temperature. Just like a pressure cooker!
As the demand from the vessel increases, the liquid "steams" and supplies more v***r through the system to the burners on your appliances. If there is a heavy demand, the pressure inside the tank begins to decrease and the liquid gets colder and colder until it reaches -40°F. As a result, the humidity in the air contacts the cold metal and is turned to ice.
This could result in lower pressure, but it is not likely to effect your output. Most appliances operate at half of 1 psi from the regulator to the burners. But imagine living in Yakutia or Alaska, they could carry propane in buckets!
